1. Answer.
Because it is a con.
That con is very consistent with the way the Cambridge Machine very successfully destroys Cambridge.
The environmental destroyers can achieve essentially nothing by doing a clean up the state should be doing in its budget.
But the clean up allows the environmental destroyers to fool well meaning people into supporting existing destruction by omission.
And the clean up perhaps get well meaning people to support future destruction.
And most importantly, the Cambridge Machine can lie that they love the Charles River while supporting destruction and heartless animal abuse.
After all, do they not tell you how well meaning they are?
2. The Record.
One of the first things Friends of the White Geese did was to discredit the predecessor to the falsely names Charles River “Conservancy.”
This entity apparently existed for two purposes:
A. To conduct an annual clean up of Magazine Beach the week before Boston University used it for commencement.
B. To destroy the environment and animals at Magazine Beach.
Spring 2000, we discredited them.
Fall 2000, the falsely named Charles River “Conservancy” announced its existence with overlapping membership.
Cambridge and their fellow travelers in the state accomplished the environmental and animal destruction at Magazine Beach the first fake organization was fighting for.
The Cambridge City Manager and his friends created the Cambridgeport “Neighborhood Association.”
The Cambridgeport “Neighborhood Association” has helped, through omission, destruction of key zoning protections on the north side of Memorial Drive by friends of theirs running around with a city manager written zoning change and lying about its contents. The poor dears, as is usual, they just could not be bothered with knowing what they were doing.
The fake neighborhood association got caught. They now brag of achieving “improvements” in the Memorial Drive zoning. Translation: They undid what they got caught on and left in multiple outrages buried in fine print.
During almost all of its existence, the fake neighborhood association has wanted to know nothing about Magazine Beach.
They did spend a lot of time telling people to assist the “Friends” of Alewife at Alewife.
Now that their friends has succeeded in massive destruction at Alewife, the fake neighborhood association has declared they have nothing to do with Alewife.
3. The current love for Magazine Beach.
Now the fake neighborhood association and the fake conservancy are running around claiming their love for Magazine Beach.
The fake neighborhood association has conducted two meetings on Magazine Beach.
In the first meeting, they allowed Cambridge’s highly destructive fellow travelers at the Department of Conservation and Recreation to announce their plans to “further the progress” (translation: continue the existing outrage and make it worse) at Magazine Beach.
The fake Neighborhood Association prohibited any form of negative comment. They bragged that under their rules, negative comment is prohibited in their meetings. English translation: they bragged the organization is a fake.
In the second meeting, the fake neighborhood association presented a “history” of Magazine Beach. Trouble is their “history” did not include the destruction of the last twelve years.
They announced that they would allow “comments”, but try to keep it to three minutes.
They were generous enough to allow comments telling what happened in the last twelve years in the comment period. “Try to keep to” three minutes turned into a prohibition to speak more than three minutes with the chair talking over the last of the three maximum minutes.
4. So why the sudden love for Magazine Beach.
First of all, lying through omission.
Since the last twelve years did not exist in their world, they do not mention it.
But they proclaim their love and want improvements.
The most important improvements needed is to undo the outrages of the last twelve years.
But the last twelve years do not exist.
So they clean up Magazine Beach in spite of the fact that the fellow travelers of Cambridge are paid to do that.
And they fight to further the destruction by destroying the picnic area west of the playing fields by destroying its parking.
And they fight for destruction, a new highway in and on the banks of the Charles.
And they do not care that responsible state officials call their highway environmentally destructive.
And the idea of undoing existing outrages is completely unthinkable because even mentioning such an idea hurts their friends' feelings. But please vote for the pols who will not undo their obvious outrages.
5. So help us clean up Magazine Beach. We love it.
And so not mention the poisons being dumped there to keep alive sickly grass introduced there. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the healthy grass which survived the better part of a century without poisons. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the reduction in size of the playing fields at Magazine Beach to put in drainage to drain off the poisons that should not be there in the first place. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the wall of introduced bushes which prevent access between Magazine Beach and the Charles River. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention that this bizarre wall is the only vegetation bordering the Charles River which is not destroyed twice a year. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the heartless starving of the 30 year resident Charles River White Geese by that bizarre wall. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention that the claims to love swimming in the Charles River have been proven a lie by their indifference to that bizarre wall. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention, in response to claims of need to have a small boat dock, that the boat dock was destroyed. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the bizarre destruction of the nesting area of the Charles River White Geese. Those twelve years do not exist.
And do not mention the destruction of almost all ground vegetation between the BU Bridge and the BU Boathouse. Those twelve years do not exist.
6. But help us improve Magazine Beach.
They have so much more destruction to go forward with that they are keeping as secret as they can get away with. After all, have they not just discovered a love for Magazine Beach which they tell you about non stop.
The fact that they did not want to know about Magazine Beach during the recent years of destruction? Those twelve years do not exist.
